AUS vs SL Today Match Prediction: Welcome to the First T20I between Australia and Sri Lanka. Australia take the field for the first time as the men’s T20 World Cup champions. They are facing a Sri Lanka side that is in the process of rebuilding but showed some promising signs in the UAE even though they could not get out of the group stage and will again have to go through the qualifying section of the World Cup in October. The good news is Kusal Mendis and Danushka Gunathilaka return from their year-long bans. For Australia, Ben McDermott will open in place of the rested David Warner and Josh Inglis has been handed a debut. This will be the perfect time for both the teams to tune up their T20 squads before the mega event in November.
